Has anyone been there? Its located in NC and I believe I am making the trip down there this weekend for practice. If you have how do you like it, are there flaggers/ambulances, and is there enough parking for us to bring our toy hauler for the weekend?
Thanks

i know what you mean, but they dont hold races, its run by 2 ppl and its not a huge facility.

A buddy of mine and a pretty large group of fast guys were going down there almost weekly for a while. From what ive heard the place is Very nice. long layout, and pretty sick. I know they said it never really got too packed there either.

There are also Alot of other tracks around the area also. I know whenever i fly into charolette seeing all the tracks below is crazy looking. The MX scene must do pretty good in NC.

Thank you
Justin

And I thought I was the only one to look for tracks from the air.... When we flew into Vegas, I was amazed at the amount of tracks I saw....

lol, actually when im flying im looking straight forward waiting to land. My wife is always spotting the cool things to look at, then she cons me in to looking out the window. If you cant tell im terified of heights. The coolest one is whenever we fly into puerto rico, there is a Huge crazy looking track almost on the side of the island. It looks to be all Clay/red colored dirt.

Hey Jordan,

I went there this winter. It was a fun place! By the middle of the day, the big track was so rutted up by the dirtbikes that it was almost unridable. There is plenty of land for you to park the toyhauler. It was VERY laid back.... No flaggers or ambulances. I remember passing a little medical facility just a few miles from the track, though.

Hope you have fun!!!
